    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, if I remember well, there was an amendment to the Kenya National Examinations Council Act which the learned Senator talked about. The amendment was to deal with the mischief of retaining these certificates. In fact, it was to address the practice by schools of retaining these certificates. What is being done now in the name of other laws is to frustrate a substantive Act of Parliament dealing with issue of certificates. I think the Chairperson should explain this extensively, because if his argument can be taken to extensor and going to other fields, you may one day find that the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) might say that you cannot be issued with a Kenyan identity card because you have not paid your taxes; and you can find so many other examples like that. Now we know that the right to education is a constitutional right. It is not just education by sitting in a classroom, but reaping the benefits of education. Can the Ministry of Education comply with the Constitution if they sit on this basic right? The privileges of getting education are by getting those certificates. Can he explain that?"
